Master Swift, design elegant interactions, and create a fully functioning iOS app. This Specialization covers the fundamentals of iOS application development in the Swift programming language. You’ll learn to use development tools such as XCode, design interfaces and interactions and evaluate their usability, and integrate camera, photo, and location information to enhance your app. In the final Capstone Project, you’ll apply your skills to create a fully-functioning photo editing app for iPhone, iPad, and Apple Watch. A Mac computer is required for success in this course.

Nice course, but would be better if the examples were thought through before demonstration, rather than do it extempore.
LC
Better than the previous course in terms of structure and content, still think more practice exercises for each week would be beneficial beyond just copying the video.
CS
Little overloaded with concepts and code. was hard to follow the code when pasted as whole
AC
It's very easy. On the other hand the teachers do not do very deep and you need to do a lot of selfstudy. Would not recommend for the ones without basic knowledge of CS.
TL
I enjoyed how concise the videos were, there was a lot of information per unit of time, and it was challenging, but not too much so.
AB
Now all the knowledge acquired in this course has improved my skills in my job.I love this.
CD
The debugger video showed some very awesome tools I've never known about. Thanks for mentioning the view hierarchy in debugger mode.

I learned a lot - I look forward to it being updated to Swift 3 - I'll take it again then.
CY
Great coverage of course content, material ! Very exciting stuff !
NL
Was pretty good overall. I feel there was a lack of in-lecture questions in the first few videos. That aside, great course.
DK
The videos have been super helpful. I also think the assignment is pretty good.

This is the next phase of course 2! And the course is good. But i hope it includes more items in future. :)

It looks good, but it's not updated. They are talking about swift 2 coming soon when the newest version is swift 4.2.
The course is not updated - the version of Xcode cannot be higher than 7.3.1, but this version is not compatible with latest macOS Mojave.
In my opinion this course should be updated or removed from the list of paid specialization.
The course uses Swift 2.x and Xcode 7.x. These are versions from 2016 and certain aspects of both Swift and Xcode have changed dramatically, to the point where one of the sample playgrounds just doesn't work with new versions. At the time of writing, it is 2019 and the gap is just too big for something that should be relatively easy to update.
Swift 5 came out and this course is using Swift 2 which is too outdated. It requires older Xcode that require older MacOS versions. Why do I have to downgrade my Mac for a course?
The course content and final assesment is unrelated. I, as a mobile developer of 5 year, do not recommend this course at all. You may try to download official examples, which is way better to learn Swift and iOS programming.
Sadly very outdated. You can't install Xcode 7.3.1 on Mojave.
This course is seriously outdated. It runs on Xcode 7 and swift 2, while the swift 5 is here!
Good course, but could really use updating to latest Swift version. Xcode 7.3.1 can't even be run on macOS Mojave, resulting in a lot of people submitting their assignment with newer version, which then can't be run in 7.3.1 making grading others impossible.
this course teaches everything in swift 3. My macbook cannot install xcode 7 for swift 3 its wants the latest version even though I found xcode 7 online. Basically there is no point of taking this course wasted my 2 weeks
Requires Xcode 7.3.1 that does not work on updated MacOS. The course needs to be updated to remain usable.
out of date
outdated
This course is not updated.
While Xcode now is already version 9 in 2018, it is still using Xcode 7.
While Swift is already 4 in 2018, it is still using Swift 2.
It is very sad that in the course material it keeps saying "we are aware Xcode is already version 8, please stick with Xcode 7 for now. Xcode 8 will break our code".
It is sadder to know the knowledge we learn in this course doesn't apply to modern technology.
One more thing, the course forum is poorly maintained. Many people are asking questions while no one is really answering.
This course needs to be updated and they should tell you int he introduction what is needed, like a MacBook, and what OS to use, way to much time in trying to install old software for this course.
Horrible!!!!! Should be removed immediately!!!!!!
This class is obsolete. The material has not been updated in upwards of 5 years. The code that you will need to build your assignments on top of will not run on the most recent versions of Swift, XCode, and MacOS.
The material is old, the version of Xcode now is 11.4 and this course ask for Xcode 7, which you can get it, but you won't be able to install in the most recent OS Mojave or Catalina
It doesn't work with modern versions of macOS
Outdated course ! Worthless
Decided to not continue the course until they explicitly recommended that the course will be taught using Swift 2 (now we are in 5) and a deprecated XCode version. Do not want to spent my time learning a new thing that then, I should learn again.
It seems the instructor Jack Wu didn't prepare the course material.
